Netanyahu tells Belgian FM no dice on French peace plan
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has met with Belgium Foreign Minister Didier Reynders, who thanked Israel for its support following the March terror attacks in Brussels, the Prime Minister’s Office says.
Netanyahu told Reynders that Israel is opposed to a French effort to convene a peace conference to kick off multilateral negotiations to reach an Israeli-Palestinian peace arrangement.
“Netanyahu emphasized that such initiatives allow the Palestinians to avoid direct negotiations thereby making peace more remote,” the PMO says in a press statement.
The two also talked about the threat of Islamic extremism, according to the release.
